They have a very different diet there, later onset of fertility on average, and lower life expectancy in general, so it's apples and oranges.

I think life expectancy in China for women is around age 54 or so. In that case, many aren't living long enough to get cancer anyway.

Actually, life expectancy for women in China is in the low 70s now.
